Leaves

As a leaf in the the tree, I sway with the breeze
With hundreds more just like me.
Come out of your house, come closer to me
I am unique, that you will see.
From a far, from my voice you would not even know
What race am I, am I high or am I low?
Come closer to me, you are still way too far.
At the base of this tree, I am still just a blur.
I want to show you this tear and this hole
I might just show you something that touches your soul.
Climb up the trunk and out on the limb
There is nothing to fear it is a win-win.
We can bask in the sunlight till fall arrives.
Sharing stories and laughs, opening each other's eyes
To the beauty within and the beauty around
By true friendship then, we will be bound.
